After returning to the village, Sun Daniu followed him to Uncle Dong's house.

The yard suddenly became lively, and everyone gathered together to divide the prey.

Sun Daniu pointed at the wild boar weighing more than 300 kilograms and said.

"Axing and I both contributed to killing this wild boar, so let's split it in half."

He had a simple smile on his face and beads of sweat on his forehead sparkled in the setting sun.

Zhou Xing quickly waved his hands and said sincerely.

"Brother Daniu, you fired the first shot. I just fired the second. It's not good to share so many. Besides, you have a big family, so you can take more!"

Sun Daniu took a step forward, put his hands on Zhou Xing's shoulders, pressed them slightly, and said.

"Ah Xing, you are such an honest kid! But you can't say that. Without your shot, we might not be able to catch the wild boar!"

After the two of them pushed and shoved each other, Sun Daniu pondered for a moment, decided to divide it more, and then spoke.

"Okay, then I'll take the pig's head, and we'll share the meat in half!"

Although there is not much meat on the pig's head, it is still a good thing for the people in the mountains.

After removing the meat from the pig's head, the remaining pig bones can be used to make soup for the children.

Uncle Dong smiled and took out the butcher knife from his home.

"Come on, everyone, make way, I'll help you divide the meat!"

Uncle Dong picked up the knife skillfully, and with a few strokes, the pork was evenly divided into two portions.

After the meat was divided, everyone prepared to leave with satisfaction.

Sun Daniu called Zhou Xing, picked up one of the largest red dogs and handed it to him.

"Ah Xing, you guys keep this red dog."

Zhou Xing looked at the red dog and waved his hand and said.

"Brother Daniu, how can this be so embarrassing?"

Sun Daniu smiled and shook his head, his attitude sincere and simple

"The meat of this red dog doesn't taste very good, just don't be disgusted! I'll ask you to come with me next time we go hunting in the mountains!"

Zhou Xing hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out to take it.

"Thank you, Brother Danniu. Be sure to ask me to come with you next time you go into the mountains!"

The lively hazel grouse that were captured were kept in the chicken coop so that we could eat fresh chicken.

In the yard, Uncle Dong was holding the shiny butcher knife, preparing to butcher the wild boar they had hunted so that they could share the meat with everyone.

Zhou Yue trotted over and quickly reached out to stop Uncle Dong.

"Uncle Dong, that half pig is enough for us to eat. You can keep this one to sell for money."

Zhou Yue knew clearly that Uncle Dong's family was in financial difficulty and they were short of money.

The reason why she placed the wild boar near Uncle Dong was because she hoped that their family could save more money and live a more comfortable life.

Uncle Dong put down the knife, rubbed his hands on his apron, and said with an honest smile on his face.

"It's okay, Yue girl. We are not short of money at home. Let's keep this pig to nourish our comrades!"

Dong Sheng, who was standing by, also came over, his face filled with joy that was hard to conceal.

"Yes, I was lucky today. I even dug up three wild ginseng plants! I can save a lot of money on buying medicine this month!"

Among the medicinal herbs used by Dong Sheng’s mother, wild ginseng is the most expensive, while the others are relatively affordable.

Now I have dug up three wild ginsengs at once, which can relieve a lot of pressure on my family.

Even so, Zhou Yue was still worried, and continued to persuade Uncle Dong and Dong Sheng while looking at them.

"Uncle Dong, this half of pork can last us a long time, and there are also red poodles, hazel grouse and rabbits. We can never finish them no matter how much we eat! The more money we can save, the more money we can have!"

Under Zhou Yue's persuasion, they decided to send the pig to town for the early market tomorrow morning.

"Wow! This wild boar is really fat. Look how thick its fat is!"

Qiangzi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the half piece of pork. It was rare to see such a fat wild boar.

Zhou Yue felt a little guilty when she heard this. The wild boar seemed to have gained some weight.

After all, these wild boars do not live in the woods and dig for food everywhere, but are artificially raised wild boars, so they are naturally fatter.

Sister Chunyan rolled up her sleeves and came over to help, using a knife to cut the lard off her body.

"This fat is really good. We'll make it into lard later, and we'll use the lard residue to make dumplings tomorrow morning!"

Excluding the pig's head, this half pig weighs about 100 pounds.

A comrade looked at the pile of small meat mountains and said.

"There's too much pork to eat. Even though it's August now, the heat of autumn is still strong! We have to pickle it quickly, otherwise it will go bad easily."

Then the whole yard became busy. Qiangzi and Dong Sheng cut the pork into large pieces weighing two or three pounds.

Zhou Yue and his colleagues carefully applied salt on them, strung them up with ropes, and hung them on the beams.

Uncle Dong squatted in the corner, concentrating on dealing with the red dog.

He held the knife in his rough big hands and carefully skinned the red dog.

He moved very carefully, for fear of damaging the beautiful fur.

As expected, the old hunter’s skills were excellent. He peeled off the red dog’s fur very completely.

Uncle Dong looked up and smiled, then said to Zhou Yue who was helping.

"Girl Yue, this red dog's fur is beautiful. I will use it to make you a small coat later! The fur is soft and will keep you warm in winter!"

When Zhou Yue heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, revealing two deep dimples, and she said with a smile.

"Okay! Thank you, Uncle Dong!"

As the sky gradually darkened, warm yellow light shone through the house, adding a touch of warmth to the simple home.

"It's time to eat!"

At Uncle Dong's call, everyone gathered around the table with some paint peeling off.

Today's dinner is particularly sumptuous. There is a pot of soup stewed with hazel grouse on the table. Golden chicken fat floats on the surface of the soup, and the aroma is fragrant.

The braised rabbit meat is bright red in color and greasy, which makes people hungry just by looking at it.

The sauerkraut pork stewed with vermicelli is sour and fragrant and appetizing. The vermicelli has absorbed the sauerkraut juice and is soft and delicious.

There was also a plate of fried red dog meat, which looked pretty good.

Zhou Xing's stomach was already growling with hunger. He stared at the food on the table and swallowed.

He first picked up a piece of red dog meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it hard.

But I didn't expect that after chewing for a long time, my cheeks were sore, but the piece of meat was still in my mouth and I couldn't swallow it.

Zhou Xing frowned and muttered.

"The meat of this red dog is so tough! I can't swallow it even after chewing it for a long time!"
